I thought those new anti-sway crane controls were just expensive toys for big companies.

Then I ran a job with one on a 300-ton crawler in Houston last spring, moving a generator set between two tight buildings. The thing cut my swing time in half and the load barely moved. Who else has actually used these on a real site?

You mentioned tight buildings, but the real win is how it handles wind gusts on open sites.
